Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user talk (discussion) page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.

Half-Blood Prince

What you may call "offensive stereotyping", others may call a filming anecdote which is intended to be a joke. The only reason I believe would justify its removal is that it isn't really very notable; so I will leave it out for now. However, if you don't find Michael Gambon's "comedic tastes" funny, then that isn't really Wikipedia's fault. I'm not saying I agree with his choice of humour either, but I'm sorry, we include facts, even if some may consider them offensive - see WP:CENSOR for a vague description. Anyway, I'm not going to fight that the content be included. Have a nice day. Gran² 11:24, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
